The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
ok - so who her has one, I'm in the process of filling in the application form, any hoops I should be aware off??
prehaps not the best icon to use in this thread!!
Gooner, I thought you had one.
If you're serious, go to your nearest major plod shop and talk to them. Failing that, your local shooting club. Are you a member of a shoot or club? Why do you want one? Sport? Vermin control(doesn't include pikeys)? Do you have a Criminal Record(not always an obstacle)? Do you have a drug/Alchohol dependency?
Try to substantiate your application by citing specific reasons. Try, if you're not already, to become pally with a local farmer and say you'll happily do his pest control as soon as you get your ticket. Then, when the plod come around to see you, you can say that you need a .410 for rat control, a 20 bore for pigeons, and a 12 bore for clays and driven days - not that you have to use that configuration as stated, but they like to see that you've put some thought into it...

Well you looked so stylish I thought you batted for the other camp - thats like the ultimate compliment!
I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!
And please, please - if you do have to use one, use an auto-safe flag - the times I've wandered around a clay shoot looking down the barrel of a (perfectly safe, I'm sure) semi-auto, which was resting on someone's shoulder, thinking 'I wander if there's a cartridge in the breach' have been numerous...
